Chapter 399: Encountering an Immortal on the Road, Killing the Demon and Saving People
In the box that Ye Li was carrying, Yaoyao stared at the box in front of her, then looked outside at the few people who seemed not to have noticed them, and a complicated look appeared on her face.
She is not stupid. If it were other children of her age, they would definitely not think much about such obvious behavior and actions.
But her master was Ge Chen Langshi, so she was naturally quite intelligent. Excluding the option of her overthinking, the only possibility was that they had already discovered her plan and were just taking advantage of it.
"Yaoyao, noon...it's been a while since you last saw me, aren't you going to eat...something?"
"Well, regardless of whether the guess is right or not, let's go for it. Come on, Qiqi, open the box and use the stove to heat up the food."
Looking at Yaoyao's distressed expression, Qiqi tilted her head and tapped her little mouth with her finger. She seemed to understand what the other person was worried about, but she didn't feel there was any harm.
Pulled by Yaoyao, Qiqi glanced at the people outside with a monocle, feeling a little confused. The medicine that Mr. Baizhu gave her a few days ago was still in her pocket. It seemed that he said that if anyone was in danger, she should give it to the other person. He also gave herself a long vacation, which was even more reasonable than during the Lantern Festival.
Perhaps she had forgotten all those years of working day and night, giving Mr. Bai Shu a good excuse to let her take a long rest.
Qiqi didn't know why she had this idea. Since the day she met Ye Li, she, who often forgot things, could clearly record her daily footprints. Even if she forgot a little, she would take out her notes and look at them.
With the double blessing, Qiqi can be said to be almost the same as a normal person except for the zombie body.
However, Qiqi said that she didn't want to think too deeply about this kind of long-term work that requires thinking, so she just stopped thinking about it. Anyway, she had Yaoyao as an external brain.
Yaoyao, who was unaware of Qiqi's inner changes at the moment, inexplicably felt a strange feeling that seemed unfriendly but was actually something she was happy with.
She opened the box and poured the food into the stove. Yaoyao couldn't help but look at the people outside with her monocle with suspicion. Could it be that these older brothers were really planning some mischievous trick?
"No, no, no, Yaoyao, you can't have such thoughts. My brothers are all good people."
This thought flashed through her mind and was extinguished by Yaoyao. The memory of what Ye Li had taught her in the past about the ways of the world, how the world is dangerous and how one needs to be cautious at all times was hidden deep in her heart, acting as an insurance policy to make her wisdom dim and remain secret.
At this time, she didn't know that her little disciple was taught by Ye Li to be cautious, prudent, and prepared for many situations. He was actually helpful and kind to strangers, but was actually extremely alert. He put on a shield as soon as he came, and put on a swift talisman and an acceleration talisman. Grandma Ping, commonly known as Gou Dao, sneezed and couldn't help wondering how she, as an immortal, could be like this.
……
Two days later, on the road to Qingyunding Mountain.
After trekking through mountains and rivers, Ye Li and others ran up the mountain from the downslope plain of Dun Yuling, crossed the top plain connecting the mountains, passed Cui Jue Slope, and crossed the road connecting Jue Yunjian, and finally arrived at the area where many immortals live.
Just go north and you will reach Ao Zang Mountain, go southwest and you will reach Hu Lao Mountain, and a little further southwest is Nan Tianmen, which is the place where the Ruota Dragon King was sealed.
This is an area of stunning scenery, with vast terrain. Ordinary mortals dare not set foot here, but many people who seek immortals and ask for advice also come here. On the way up the mountain, Ye Li and others also met many people who came here to seek immortals.
Just halfway up the mountain, they met a group of three immortal seekers who looked elegantly dressed but had actually suffered a lot. Their clothes were wrinkled, they were covered in dust, and they were being chased by monsters.
"Brother, didn't you say that immortals often appear here? Why are there monsters here?"
"Third brother, you have to calm down. After all, we are the three richest men in Liyue South Academy. And second brother, quickly take out the treasures that eldest brother prepared in advance. We will definitely be able to drive them away."
"Brother, we left our backpack on the mountain. We ran too fast when we encountered a monster and forgot to take it."
“Ahhh, I didn’t encounter any immortals, and I was chased by monsters all the way. And there are also two idiots like you. I feel like I burned Liyue in my previous life. I am so unlucky!”
The three of them ran one after the other until they turned a corner and headed down the mountain. As they ran, they saw four people walking slowly on the road they had to pass. They couldn't help but feel happy and sad. They looked back at the monsters behind them, then quickly turned their heads and said loudly:
"Brothers in front! Hurry up and run around. There are monsters behind us. If we don't run, it will be too late."
At this moment, Ye Li and the other three who were chatting looked up at the three embarrassed guys running away in front of them, and couldn't help but look at each other. Xingqiu had no choice but to take out the sacrificial sword, and said to Ye Li, Jia Ming, and Chong Yun with a smile:
"Do we need to attack together? Judging from the vibrations under our feet, there are quite a few monsters out there."
"Need I say more? Of course I will send them on their way."
"The evil spirit is just ahead of us. How can we stand still? As a Taoist priest, why should we fear a battle?"
Ye Li's eyes twitched as he looked at Chongyun pretending to use the lines from The Adventures of the Emperor's Son, a stitched version of the fantasy work Teyvat written by Wendy. He couldn't help but wonder if the other party said anything more, he would really be so embarrassed that he would dig out Liyue Harbor under his feet.
"Very good, each one depends on his ability, whoever has less luggage will carry it."
Xingqiu started the game with just one sentence. Ye Li opened the box and pulled out the Qianyan Spear that Xingqiu and the others were familiar with, which changed the expressions of several people.
However, Xingqiu and his companions did not ask any further questions and first rescued the three people running in front.
Ye Li put the box away, holding the spear in one hand, looking at Xingqiu and the others who had already run out, he also took a step forward and caught up with Xingqiu and the others.
The four of them were running very fast. They covered a distance of 100 meters in just a few seconds and passed by three people who were running frantically for their lives. The wind pressure created by their running slowed down the three of them. They looked back with horrified expressions and were instantly dumbfounded.
Ye Li, who was the first to rush into the pile of monsters, swept his spear, and nearly seven hillill people with sticks were swept away. Then, with a flash of cold light, the spear pierced through their heads and masks in an instant, bringing them relief and turning them into ashes.
Xingqiu followed closely behind, his sword flowing like water, stabbing and slashing down repeatedly like raindrops, cutting the monsters surrounding him in half and piercing holes in them.
Jiaming and Chongyun were simpler and more brutal. With two swords flashing coldly, one held a sword high in the sky and dropped it into the ground to create an impact, shaking the monsters' charge. The other one rushed forward, using the huge force from his waist to turn around, and with the sweep of the sword, he directly broke through the entire monster formation.
In less than a few minutes, they dealt with nearly hundreds of small monsters like cutting melons and vegetables. When the battle was over, they didn't even break a drop of sweat, and even the Eye of God hanging on their waists didn't even light up.
Especially the figure in the front holding a spear and wearing a brown long-sleeved robe, the man without the Eye of God gave the three people a sense of security like an emperor, which shocked them physically and mentally, and they felt it was natural.
